Picked the first of the Shamuti (AKA Jaffa) oranges and clementines.
They are OK, going to get much more flavorful in a few weeks.
@kayb the excess heat is quite harsh on the citrus this year, the trees restored their vigor only this month.
The Shamuti oranges have a thick and not very bitter peel, which I think will do great candied. I never tried making it before.
